I learned the hard way... Tried first to put it on with the Grill still on the car... gave up on that after an couple of hours.
Figured out real fast.. the factory gril is NOTHING to take out.... 4 spring clippies on each side... pop those and the thing falls out onto the ground.. careful of the fog light wires. From there it could not be easier.
TRex cut a special deal with me to make a matching grill piece to go in my Shaker Hood Scoop... they sent me a lightly damaged piece large enough I could make 3 shaker grills.. (In case I screw up the first one.. LOL). I'll post pics of the project once I get started on it.

I've seen the four clips on each side, how much pressure is needed to bend the piece thats against it? Didn't want to break them, since they are attached to the bumper itself and can't be replaced.
I don't really care for the look of the billet grills. But I guess if one has to be chosen, it would be the T-Rex.
Personally, I prefer this one
Which one hawgman? The one with the lights centered in the grille?
If so, I hope to have an example of how that looks on my car by the end of the week. If the shop would hurry up and get finished!
Yea, the center fog light grill. Which one did you get, the SS or the CDC? There is another company that is about to release one very soon that you won't have to replace the lower grill to get everything to match because it looks just like the factory grill but with relocated fog lights. Personally, I can't wait!
I got the SS one. The shop called this morning as I was leaving the house, the grille and hood are on and I can pick it up the evening. I cannot wait till 4pm to leave work!
